Y acá, por las noches-And here, during the nights—
La mente que cargo es adiestradaThe mind I carry is well-trained,
Pascual pa’ la calma si requiere chambeara ‘Pascual’ fruit soda to stay chill if there’s ‘work’ to do,
Pila en el negocio, de repe’ una ‘guamasharp in the business, occasionally a ‘caguama’ large beer
Pa’ calmar el coco, no se vaya a quemarto soothe the brain, so it doesn’t burn out.
Truchas si la piensan en cag#rme el paloStay sharp if they’re thinkin’ of messin’ with me,
La estampa de bueno la puedo quitarI can drop the good-guy act whenever,
El porte que cargo a los perros asombrathe presence I carry stuns the street dogs,
Pues estoy bien bravo, ahí les contarán’cause I’m real fierce, they’ll tell you the story.
Y en corto se veAnd you can see right away
Que al chavalo sí le fue muy bienthat the kid’s doing really well for himself,
Me miran raro, sé bien el porquéthey look at me strange, I know why that is,
Es el placón que cargo hoy, tal vezit’s the heavy ‘status’ I’m carryin’ now, maybe;
De todo ya paséI’ve already been through it all.
Ya me wacharon, y ocupan saberThey’ve already spotted me, and they need to know
Que del morrillo que nada iba a serthat from the ‘kid’ who wasn’t gonna be anything,
La vuelta en corto le dio a dos o treshe quickly turned the tables on a few.
En chanclas salí por la noche pensandoI went out in flip-flops at night thinkin’
Cómo hacer más feria, mi estado normalhow to make more ‘cash’, it’s my usual state,
Pocas amistades, carnal a mi ladofew friends, a brother by my side,
Nunca me ha fallado, a la orden estáhe’s never let me down, he’s at the ready.
Dirán, de repente, que ando en lo maloThey’ll say, all of a sudden, that I’m up to no good,
Y no es nada malo si lana te daand it’s nothin’ bad if it’s bringin’ in the ‘dough’,
Respeto y respaldo tengo de mi genteI’ve got respect and backin’ from my people,
Unos cuantos corrientes que no quiero narrarjust a few ‘low-lifes’ I’d rather not mention.
Y acá, por las nochesAnd here, during the nights
Me la paso con la clika al cienI’m kickin’ it with the ‘crew’ at a hundred percent,
Anestesiado, un whisky pa’ la sednumbed up, a whisky for the thirst,
Nada me falta, yo cargo con quéI’m not lackin’ a thing, I’ve got the means
Para amanecerto see the sunrise.
Una morrita se deja quererA ‘fine girl’ lets herself be loved,
Endemoniado el vato si hay qué hacerthe guy’s like a demon if there’s ‘work’ to do,
CH en la mano por si quieren vera ‘CH’ piece in hand just in case they wanna see.
